This is only my 2 cents. But, i use this web site to establish customer loyalty and a customer base. In other words for each bid accepted i pickup at least 2 customers. I have found this site better if you can find a ebay powerseller where you need them then bid on that. I found a ebay powerseller doing alot of business from the Florida area where i like to go alot. From there i get from 40-60 pieces from them each month. At an average of 150 dollars each not bad. But i save alot on picking up at one location. They only give me loads that are in my direction of travel. This saves on fuel. They don't like to use this site even for the remaining items that i don't do such as all the way to California. I am trying to find a provider that i can relay to in the Dallas, Tx area so i can get some of that business and meet someone in the Dallas area or find a mini storage so we can relay. My customer is ok with this but some details would obviously have to be worked out. I really hate passing on all that other business but i have no choice. So what i am saying is each customer is potentially alot more business than just the one listed.

Well your right to an extent vet. but at the rate some of these guys under bid, you won't get to filing taxes because you have to make income and profit. You can tell how much the frieght has gone down. Some of us used to be Platinum Providers by $$ amount, but are lower now because were not generating the numbers, but were generating the frieght. Go figure. I can't and won't run my business off my VA benefits.
